In the cabin, Su Tianyu and others saw a large number of enemy speedboats shuttling on the sea, and they felt extremely uneasy.
"Quick, blow open the ventilation window and check the situation in the cockpit!"
There was no time to hesitate, Su Tianyu looked up and urged.
Hou Guoyu deftly stuck the sticky bomb on the window, then retreated with everyone else to a safe distance.
"boom!"
The ventilation window was instantly shattered by the explosion, and a hole was blown out in the surrounding iron sheet.
At the same time, two guards stepped forward and squatted on the ground. One of them pulled out a small drone from the backpack behind him, and the other set up a screen and placed it in front of everyone.
“Buzz!”
The drone was only the size of a palm, and it flew out through the exploded gap with a slight sound of propeller turning.
In the vast darkness, the drone was very concealed, avoiding the sight of those outside, and quickly took off and flew to the cockpit on the upper level.
"We're here, this is the floor!"
Su Tianyu had been staring at the screen. When he saw a familiar building appear inside, he immediately shouted, "Hold the drone to hover and take a look at the situation inside!"
The drone floated quietly in the air. Through the spacious glass windows, one could clearly see that there were more than two dozen masked gunmen in the cockpit, who had already taken control of the place.
Around them, there were several bodies of crew members. All the staff had been shot dead.
"Turn the camera and take a look at the situation at sea!"
Su Tianyu frowned, but remained calm and gave orders to the guards.
The guard moved the joystick to move the drone's camera toward the sea.
Several speedboats were approaching the cargo ship, and grappling hooks were fired one after another, hooking the deck. A large number of gunners grabbed the ropes and climbed up the ship very flexibly.
When Hou Guoyu saw this scene, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead, and he subconsciously said, "Fuck! There must be forty or fifty people here, too many..."
…
At the same time, at the stairs above the middle cabin.
A young man with a crew cut, wearing combat uniform and holding an automatic rifle, was half-crouching at the stairs, staring down without blinking.
His name is Xiao Ke, a brother under Yuan Biao. He is experienced, ruthless and steady with a gun. He was temporarily transferred here to carry out this mission.
When Xiao Ke heard an explosion coming from the lower cabin, he felt something was wrong and urged softly into the headset: "Hurry up and get on board immediately! Gunshots in this area will easily attract the attention of surrounding military units. We don't have much time, hurry up!"
"Received! We are in position and boarding the ship!"
After giving the order, Xiao Ke thought for a moment and asked into the headset: "Reconnaissance team, send me the location of the explosion."
"Received! Sending!"
“Ding ding!”
The combat device on Xiao Ke's wrist beeped twice. He hung the automatic rifle on his body, turned on the display screen of the device and took a glance.
The 3D image of the entire ship was displayed on the combat instrument, and a small red dot flashed in one place. Xiao Ke was very professional, zoomed in the image, and found the exact location of the red dot.
He put down the combat instrument and ordered into the headset: "Surface, call two speedboats over and use machine guns to fire at the middle of the left side of the cabin!"
The headset immediately responded: "Got it! I'll be there right away!"
…
Downstairs, in the cabin, Dai Quan took over the control of the drone and was operating it with a frown, observing the situation around him.
At this moment, Su Tianyu saw two speedboats approaching the ship rapidly in the picture.
Heavy machine guns were mounted on the rear of the five speedboats, and the gunners on them were working hard to turn their guns.
"Machine Gunner! Get down!"
Su Tianyu let out a loud roar, and almost subconsciously, hugged An Qiqi and threw her to the ground.
Upon hearing this, the others also fell to the ground with their heads in their hands.
“Da da da!”
One of the speedboats approached first, and the machine gunner pressed the muzzle of the gun and fired at the port side!
Dazzling flames spurted out of the muzzle, and a row of bullets rained down, landing on the hull with a clang.
The thick hull was riddled with bullet holes. A few bullets penetrated the thinner parts of the planks, and the things on the table and the decorations on the wall were instantly shattered.
A young guard captain held his head and lay on the ground, anxious and pale, shouting: "Their firepower is too strong! It's impossible to attack the cockpit now! The whole ship is heading towards the open sea! Director Su, we are isolated and helpless!"
"Don't panic!" Su Tianyu turned his head and looked at Su Tiannan who was lying beside him, and shouted at him: "Brother, did you bring your satellite phone?"
"No, no signal!"
Su Tiannan held the phone and waved at him: "I called many times, but couldn't get through! We have been silenced!"
Everyone held their heads and dust kept falling on them.
Su Tianyu's forehead was sweating, but he remained calm and instructed everyone: "Gather all the weapons and bury the booby traps along the way! Divide the personnel into groups and try to control the key points of this layer. In short, use whatever tricks you have to delay time as much as possible! We have no other choice now. We can only hope that the military units in this sea area hear the gunshots and rush over to support us! The other side is fighting so quickly, which means they are also in a hurry, and I am not at ease working here!! "
The order was given and everyone quickly dispersed, preparing to defend and delay.
In the corridor, a dozen guards were bending over and moving forward on the ground, quickly setting up booby traps, sticky bombs, and directional blasting equipment in the corridor.
…
After giving the order, Su Tianyu turned his head and looked at An Qiqi beside him, and said hurriedly: "They are coming for me. If we really can't hold on in a while, I will find a way to blow up a cabin and let you escape from the back. You must bring your diving equipment. I think the problem is definitely not with Longcheng."
An Qiqi looked at him and nodded.
Su Tianyu's judgment was well-founded. If the problem was with Longcheng, they would have been killed when they left the city, instead of being discovered after sailing for so many days.
The other party chose to take action in this sea area, which was obviously a bit hasty, which means that they got the news not long ago...
Thinking of this, Su Tianyu decisively ordered: "Retreat, return to Secretary Wang!"
At this time, on the stairs to the upper floor, Xiao Ke looked at the combat device on his wrist and guessed where Su Tianyu and the others might appear.
He stretched out his hand and made several silent tactical gestures to the gunmen next to him.
…
Su Tianyu and his companions left the cabin and, under the cover of the guards, crawled all the way to the room next to them where Wang Changli and his companions were staying, braving the hail of bullets.
Everyone in the visiting delegation also lay on the ground, their faces filled with panic, and some were so frightened that they could not speak.
Wang Changli tried to remain calm, but his voice was still trembling as he asked, "Xiao Yu, what's going on now?"
Su Tianyu looked solemn and said bluntly: "Uncle Wang, there are too many enemies. We may not be able to stop them. You should move to the lower level immediately. If it doesn't work, you can only jump off the boat!"
Wang Changli's face turned pale instantly, but he still nodded and said nothing.
Su Tianyu turned around and told the guards who were protecting Wang Changli and the others, "Go down there and guard the speedboat in the parking bay..."
Before they had said half of their words, they suddenly heard a buzzing sound in their ears.
Su Tianyu was startled and turned his head to look at the corridor outside. He saw more than a dozen drones descending from the barrel-shaped passage in the cabin and flying towards them!
Dai Quan also spotted the drones. He was sweating profusely and yelled at the top of his lungs, "These are drone bombs! Shoot from the back, and dodge quickly from the front! The enemy is attacking!"
The guards hurriedly took cover in the surrounding rooms, while the drones were already swooping down on them.
“Da da da!”
“Bang!”
The back row fired a barrage of bullets, blowing up several drones in the air. But a few still escaped and crashed into the corridor.
“Boom!”
The successive explosions shook the entire ship.
Two guards were hit by the explosion and were seriously injured, lying on the ground wailing. Their companions pulled them into the next room.
On the choppy sea, a life-and-death battle on the cargo ship officially begins!
…
Longcheng, Anxi Military Hospital.
An Zecheng heard the quarrel in the corridor and walked over immediately.
"Commander An."
"Commander!"
“…!”
Everyone greeted each other.
"Um."
An Zecheng nodded, his eyes fell on Brother Qiu who had been silent, and asked, "What happened just now?"
Brother Qiu saluted An Zecheng with a snap and replied, "Reporting to the commander, the National Bureau of Investigation wants to take the murderer away alone."
An Zecheng understood what he said, and turned to look at Gu Baishun. After a long silence, he slowly said, "It's not appropriate to take him away alone. However, the National Bureau of Investigation and Statistics can jointly interrogate him with us."
